4. Leak Test
The H2O Audio waterproof housing lets you to listen to digital audio during
active watersports. It houses the Apple iPod nano (2 Gen) digital media
player.
HOUSING:
The housing features the LatchTight Locking System which
keeps the unit waterproof during operation. The H2O Audio housing allows
for functional control of the player while in the water with the Commander
Scroll Wheel.
NOTE:
The iPod is NOT waterproof without the H2O Audio housing and
headphones and is NOT covered under the product warranty. Any attempt
to use the housing with an audio player other than the Apple iPod nano
(2 Gen) will void the Warranty.
HEADPHONES:
The housing is only waterproof when combined with H2O
Audio waterproof headphones (sold separately). Use of other headphones
with a 3.5mm stereo connector will result in a water resistant case, and should
not be submerged.
Before utilizing the system for the first time, it is highly recommended to
perform a 'Leak Test'. Follow the instructions below.
DO NOT INSTALL THE iPod nano (2 Gen) INSIDE THE HOUSING FOR THE
LEAK TEST

2. Verify the T-Seal is fully seated and free of debris, then close and lock
the housing using the latch.
3. Immerse the housing, without the iPod, in water and soak for 30
minutes.
4. Manipulate the controls during submersion.
5. Remove from the water, dry the exterior, and visually inspect the
housing for any sign of leaks before opening.
6. Open the housing upside down to prevent water from dropping into
the housing during opening.
7. After a successful 'Leak Test', install the iPod in the housing.
